IDS/BLDS Development Bibliographic Database now on the Web
The library catalogue and journal articles database of the British
Library for Development Studies (BLDS) at the Institute of
Development Studies (IDS), Brighton, UK, is now accessible through
a new web interface, at http://www.ids.ac.uk/bldsdb/
The database includes over 116,000 records of documents on economic
and social development held by the BLDS. This comprises:
- all journal, working paper and series titles held
- books acquired since 1987
- selected journal articles indexed since 1990.
(Earlier material is accessible though the BLDS card catalogue only.)
Particular strengths of the BLDS lie in its collection of materials
produced in developing countries. It is also a depository library
for publications from international organisations (including the UN
system and World Bank) and collects widely from developed country
publishers.
The web interface uses Inmagic's DB/TextWorks WebPublisher software.
It has been developed by the IDS's Devline service
(http://www.ids.ac.uk), which develops and hosts electronic
information services and systems in the field of economic and social
development, in cooperation with the ELDIS Project (Electronic
Development and Environment Information System -
http://www.ids.ac.uk/eldis/).
Please send comments, questions and suggestions for improvements on
the new service to Debbie Beer, d.beer@sussex.ac.uk
